Species & Sizes of Pressure Treated Wood
Treated wood is generally available as dimensional stock in 2x4’s, 2x6’s, 4x4’x, and 2x2’s for rail components. 5/4x6’s* and 2x6’s for decking. 2x8’s, 2x10’s, 2x12’s for joists, stair stringers, and beams. 6x6’s for support posts. Also plywood.

*For decking, a popular thickness is 5/4" (spoken “five-quarters”), which has rounded edges for a distinctive look.

The predominant species of treated wood is a regionally available softwood. Most common are:

Southern Yellow Pine - Southern Pine is the most common deck framing material in eastern United States. It is strong and stiff. SYP logs yield a high proportion of sapwood which works well to absorb preservative.

Red and Ponderosa Pine – Less strong than SYP, found in Northern U.S. and Canada.

Douglas fir – It is very strong and is less prone to warping and spitting than SYP. Predominant material found in western United States and Canada

Hem-fir – It is weaker and more prone to warping and splitting than Douglas fir, but more receptive to preservation. It encompasses a group of western species.

Retention Levels for Pressure Treated Wood
Different applications impose different hazards on wood, and require different amounts of preservative for protection. These amounts are called “retention levels,” referring to the amount of preservative retained in the wood after treatment. Furthermore, each preservative has its individual retention level for these applications. Be sure to obtain wood treated for the application you have in mind. The intended use is identified on the tag stapled to each piece of lumber.

.25 lbs per cubic foot – Rated for outdoor use above grade only.

.40 lbs per cubic foot – Rated for ground contact. This will work well for joists.

.60 lbs per cubic foot – Used for wood foundation systems- this is required if you plan on burying your support posts in the ground.

.80 lbs per cubic foot – Marine Use: Freshwater Contact

2.50 lbs per cubic foot – Marine Use: Saltwater Contact

Lumber Grading Standards
Many lumberyards stock treated wood in the broad category of #2 or better. If this is the case you may want to sort through the lumber piece by piece to find clear, straight boards. Because treated wood is often still wet when it is delivered to the site it will shrink slightly in width and thickness as it dries out. This can cause significant twisting, cupping, bowing, and warping especially in lower grade boards where knots and uneven grains are already present. It is possible that some boards will become so deformed that they will be unusable. You may want to store lumber by fastening boards together using a method called stickering to allow boards to dry evenly. You may also purchase kiln dried after treatment (KDAT) which is much more stable but also more expensive.

Premium - Highest grade for 5/4 radius edge decking.

Select - The highest grade available, contains very few detects. It must meet a minimum 1/12 grain slope and have all knots sound encased. It has a high consistency and the appearance is very good.

#1 – Will contain no splits larger than the width of the board. Knots may not be larger than 2 ¾". One hole is permitted every 3 ft.

#Standard - Midrange grade for 5/4 decking.

#2 – Grain slope must meet minimum 1/8 grain slope. Boards will contain no splits larger than 1.5 times width of board. Knots may not be larger than 3 1/2". One hole is permitted every 2 ft. Wane corners.

#3 – The lowest quality grade. Not suitable for deck construction.
